  1. I suppose it's too much to hope for a rerelease Ultra Magnus with trailer/armour?

    Fat chance, since they only repaint whatever the current Prime figure is and call it Ultra Magnus. But who knows? Maybe someday they find a cure for their cerebral rectitus and actually give us fans what we want.

  2. Vehicles will have to wait for a while, retailers are being hesistant to order some because the sigma 6 2.5" vehicles did not sell well.

    Ya think that might be because the entire S6 line sucked major ass? Goofy looking figures with ridiculous vehicles. I used to have a ton of the early figures and vehicles, but when I looked as the S6 line I wasn't impressed with it. The earlier figures and vehicles were awesome and will probably fly off the shelves due to the eBay whores.

  3. Love it or hate it, this movie is making a lot of money and the theater I went to was packed solid. Went to see it a second time (with the wife this time) and it was just as good as the first time I went, only this time I found the S7 guy even more annoying.

  4. just how did

    Megatron die/get shutdown, anyway? Like Jazz's death, I was like, "what?"

    Remember when Prime said

    "if I can't defeat Megatron, I want you to put the Allspark in my chest so I can sacrifice myself to end this war" or something like that? Well, instead of killing Prime with the power of the Allspark, Sam decided to kill Megatron with it by holding it up to Meg's chest.

  5. I thought the movie was good. I took my son to see it yesterday with my friend and his kid (who apparently doesn't know how to control the volume of his voice, GRRRRRR!). Here are my gripes:

    1. $14 for two small popcorns and two small drinks! WTFrack is up with that crap?

    2. After sitting through roughly 30 minutes of previews and commercials (when did commercials show up at a theater?) the movie starts, and there's no sound until

    halfway through the conversation that all of the soldiers are having about remembering weekends.

    3.

    Jazz's anti-climactic death. It all seemed so unheroic and too fast.

    4.

    That giant cube collapsing on itself to become the size of a small UPS box (and it looked like cardboard when Sam was carrying it).

    5.

    The "nut-shot" from a human that took down a Decepticon (can't remember who it was) after being blasted a million times by the Autobots.

    6.

    Speaking of the nut shot, that dude should have shredded his spine with how long he slid on the concrete after falling off the motorcycle.

    7. As mentioned, every time a new TF popped up on the screen, my friend's kid would say "that's a Decepticon" or "that's an Autobot" in a rather loud voice.

    Despite those minor flaws, I still enjoyed the movie and I think the writers did a good job of making it somewhat believable. I'm going to see it again with my wife next time.

  6. The only ones that I've been impressed with so far, are the Real Gear figures. We bought the cell phone and the Lazerbeak look alike today, and the only problem is that the cell phone's legs tend to pop off during transformation. However, they look pretty cool and they're only 7 bucks.
